Big Brother End-of-Season TV Schedule #BB16

The beginning of football season has really shuffled things around. It's interesting that one of the remaining Big Brother episodes will air on a Friday night. CBS recently moved The Amazing Race to Fridays from Sunday on what looks like a permanent basis, likely due to the massive competition for viewers on Sunday nights.

Some people think Friday night is where TV shows go to die, but it is actually a good night for family TV, and since the TAR ratings have been steadily falling, this may be a safe place for the show. Reality programming is relatively cheap compared to scripted shows or movies, so CBS creating a "reality night" might not be a bad idea.

I'm not suggesting CBS should move Big Brother to Fridays permanently, but they are clearly experimenting with their schedule.
